Answer:

y = -1/2 x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of an equation is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

We know b

y = mx-5

Substitute the values of x and y into the equation to determine the slope

-2 = m(-6) -5

Add 5 to each side

-2+5 =-6m

3 = -6m

Divide by -6

3/-6 = m

The slope is -1/2

y = -1/2 x -5
